Jeremiah

The book of the prophet Jeremiah, chapter 33, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 33 Vulgate

   1 Et factum est verbum Domi ni ad Ieremiam secundo, cum adhuc clausus esset in atrio custodiae, dicens:
   2 "Haec dicit Dominus, qui facturus est id, Dominus, qui formaturus est illud et paraturus, Dominus nomen eius:
   3 Clama ad me, et exaudiam te et annuntiabo tibi grandia et inaccessibilia, quae nescis.
   4 Quia haec dicit Dominus, Deus Israel, super domos urbis huius et ad domos regis Iudae, quae destructae sunt, pro munitionibus et pro gladio
   5 venientium, ut dimicent cum Chaldaeis et impleant eas cadaveribus hominum, quos percussi in furore meo et in indignatione mea, abscondens faciem meam a civitate hac propter omnem malitiam eorum.
   6 Ecce ego obducam ei cicatricem et sanitatem et curabo eos et revelabo illis abundantiam pacis et veritatis
   7 et convertam sortem Iudae et sortem Israel et aedificabo eos sicut a principio.
   8 Et emundabo illos ab omni iniquitate sua, in qua peccaverunt mihi, et propitius ero cunctis iniquitatibus eorum, in quibus deliquerunt mihi et spreverunt me;
   9 et erit mihi in nomen et in gaudium et in laudem et in exsultationem cunctis gentibus terrae, quae audierint omnia bona, quae ego facturus sum eis; et pavebunt et turbabuntur in universis bonis et in omni pace, quam ego faciam eis.
   10 Haec dicit Dominus: Adhuc audietur in loco isto, quem vos dicitis esse desertum, eo quod non sit homo et iumentum in civitatibus Iudae et foris Ierusalem, quae desolatae sunt absque homine et absque habitatore et absque pecore,
   11 vox gaudii et vox laetitiae, vox sponsi et vox sponsae, vox dicentium: "Confitemini Domino exercituum, quoniam bonus Dominus, quoniam in aeternum misericordia eius"; et portantium vota in domum Domini; reducam enim sortem terrae sicut a principio, dicit Dominus.
   12 Haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Adhuc erit in loco isto deserto, absque homine et absque iumento, et in cunctis civitatibus eius habitaculum pastorum accubantium gregum.
   13 In civitatibus montuosis et in civitatibus Sephelae et in civitatibus, quae ad austrum sunt, et in terra Beniamin et in circuitu Ierusalem et in civitatibus Iudae adhuc transibunt greges ad manum numerantis, ait Dominus.
   14 Ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus, et suscitabo verbum bonum, quod locutus sum ad domum Israel et ad domum Iudae.
   15 In diebus illis et in tempore illo germinare faciam David germen iustitiae, et faciet iudicium et iustitiam in terra.
   16 In diebus illis salvabitur Iuda, et Ierusalem habitabit confidenter; et hoc est nomen, quod vocabit eam: Dominus iustitia nostra.
   17 Quia haec dicit Dominus: Non interibit de David vir, qui sedeat super thronum domus Israel;
   18 et de sacerdotibus Levitis non interibit vir a facie mea, qui offerat holocautomata et incendat sacrificium et caedat victimas omnibus diebus".
   19 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam dicens:
   20 "Haec dicit Dominus: Si irritum potest fieri pactum meum cum die et pactum meum cum nocte, ut non sit dies et nox in tempore suo,
   21 et pactum meum irritum esse poterit cum David servo meo, ut non sit ex eo filius, qui regnet in throno eius, et cum Levitis sacerdotibus ministris meis.
   22 Sicuti enumerari non possunt stellae caeli et metiri arena maris, sic multiplicabo semen David servi mei et Levitas ministros meos".
   23 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam dicens:
   24 "Numquid non vidisti quid populus hic locutus sit dicens: "Duae cognationes, quas elegerat Dominus, abiectae sunt", et populum meum despexerunt, eo quod non sit ultra gens coram eis?
   25 Haec dicit Dominus: Si pactum meum inter diem et noctem et leges caelo et terrae non posui,
   26 equidem et semen Iacob et David servi mei proiciam, ut non assumam de semine eius principes seminis Abraham et Isaac et Iacob; reducam enim sortem eorum et miserebor eis".

King James Version

   1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,
   2 Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name;
   3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
   4 For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword;
   5 They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but it is to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in mine anger and in my fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city.
   6 Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.
   7 And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
   8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.
   9 ¶ And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.
   10 Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,
   11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.
   12 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
   13 In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD.
   14 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.
   15 ¶ In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.
   16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.
   17 ¶ For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
   18 Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
   19 ¶ And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying,
   20 Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;
   21 Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
   22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.
   23 Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,
   24 Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
   25 Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
   26 Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them.
